Dolores Marie Bauerschmidt

April 25, 1924 - February 19, 2017

Dolores Bauerschmidt, 92, died suddenly and unexpectedly Sunday evening, at a family barbeque, surrounded by those she loved. She was born April 25, 1924, and was the daughter of Casimer and Rose Skibinski. Dolores was a true woman of her times who worked tirelessly in the background for her family, friends and faith. She managed to raise 4 sons while running her husband’s, heating and air conditioning business and also caring for her mother and aunt. A woman of strong faith she also participated in church activities like the Altar Rosary Society at Blessed Sacrament, the parish where her family were founding members. She never said "no" when asked by family or friend to help and she was asked frequently. But, like many modern women she stood her ground on things that were important to her or the safety of her family. Dolores will be missed, but her memory will remain alive in her family and friends. She was preceded in death by her husband, Quentin “Barney”, her oldest son, Kenneth and her brother, Melvin Skibinski. She is survived by her husband, Charles “Bud” Kehres; sons, Gerald (Louise), Michael (Wendy) and Robert (Crystal); 7 grandchildren and 6 great-grandchildren. Family and friends are invited to visit on Thursday, February 23rd, from 4-8 p.m. at the Ansberg-West Funeral Home, 3000 Sylvania Avenue, (between Secor and Douglas Roads), where the rosary will be recited at 7 p.m. Visitation will also be held on Friday, February 24th, from 9:30 a.m. until the funeral mass at 10 a.m., at the Most Blessed Sacrament Church, (2240 Castlewood Drive at Bellevue Road). Interment will follow at Calvary Cemetery. In lieu of flowers the family asks for donations to the charity of the donor’s choice. Online condolences may be sent to the family at www.ansberg-west.com
